Mrs non-fixie and I have planned a week-and-a-half of credit card touring in France, as of next week. Always a good opportunity to build a couple of new bikes.
She will be riding this Cornelo, a full Reynolds 531 semi-racing frame set with a complement of parts that suit her taste and riding style. 11kgs as pictured. A first test ride was successful. I think. "It works", she said.
Yours truly will be riding this Roy Thame touring bike. Roy was the Holdsworth pro team manager BITD and also ran the Putney shop. I built it with the nicest parts from my bin. It also weighs in at 11kgs (minus the water bottle and the lights).
